TINTYPES INSTALLATION by Beau Stanton
TintypeA tintype, also known as a melainotype or
ferrotype, is a photograph made by
creating a direct positive on a thin sheet of iron coated with a dark lacquer or enamel and used as the support for the photographic emulsion. Tintypes enjoyed their widest use during the 1860s and 1870s, but lesser use of the medium persisted into the early 20th century.
